re: Putting Green in backyard.

Posted by LSUCurly on 5/12/23 at 11:34 am to Drunken Crawfish

Well I have a section of grass about 12’x22’ off the side of my patio. My pool is directly off the back of patio. Remaining grass is on other side of pool that doesn’t connect. Figured I would turn that little section into a putting green.

Putting Green in backyard.

Posted by LSUCurly on 5/12/23 at 11:15 am

Anybody installed their own putting green in backyard or had a company do it for them? Just looking for some tips on what to avoid or make sure I do.

Been watching install videos. Approximate size will be 11’x17’ which includes 1’ border of rough.

Starprogreens.com has the kits you can buy.

MJ’s last season was 02-03. Haslem’s rookie year was 03-04 (same as Lebron, Carmelo, Bosh and Wade).

re: T Mobile questions

You can download an app called TMobile Test Drive and it will let you use their service for 30 days or 30gb, whatever comes first. I tried it and noticed some improvements in certain areas over Verizon but I have an IPhone 11 so I was only able to try out the 4G LTE service. I’m curious how their 5G service is though. I’m thinking about switching also.

re: Xbox download speed question

When I do the network speed test in the Xbox settings I get around 950 mbs. When I download games I get an average of 200mbs. Most I’ve seen is 350. Must be restricted some way.

We had a Jack Russell that was a snake murderer. She'd shake them until blood was coming out of their eyes. She actually died from a water moccasin bite, but I'll be damned if we didn't find that moccasin dead a few days later from being ripped up by her.

My Jack Russell used to kill them too. She would shake them to where it would sound like she was cracking a whip. Snake would be dead instantly. Could always tell the way she was barking that she found a snake. Once she saw me she would grab it and kill it like she wanted to show me.

I see 700-985 regularly. On 2.4 ghz I will see 200-400 but I don’t have my main devices on that band. My main devices are hardwired with Cat6 Ethernet cable. That’s the devices I see 900+ with. Just my experience so far after 6 months

I pay $90 a month.

Is Trudy White still overseeing bail hearings? I’d love to see who the Judge was on this one.

In the article from March it says his case was assigned to District Judge Beau Higginbotham. Now, I don’t know if it got transferred to another judge since then.

Indicted in March of this year. So either bail or charges dropped but I’m not finding that anywhere yet.

re: Building my first and hopefully last home: need ideas for brick and stained floors

Posted by LSUCurly on 9/18/19 at 10:52 am to WPsportsman

This is our home we just built. The brick was Ashton with gray mortar smeared on the brick. I believe the term they used was “sacked” for smearing the mortar.

Check with LCR on Siegen Lane. I know they used to sell this brand. Not sure if they still do.

Best way to book Flights to Las Vegas?

Posted by LSUCurly on 9/1/17 at 9:35 am

Me and my wife are going to Vegas Oct 24-28. Does anybody have any recommendations for the best website or app to get the best deals on a flight? I looked at the typical travel websites and the Skiplagged app. Didn't know if there were other better ways.

We are wanting to fly out of New Orleans in the morning of the 24th and fly out of Vegas the morning of the 28th.
